This summary was created by AI, based on 52 opinions in the last 12 months.
The Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD) has been subject to mixed opinions among financial experts following its significant run-up in stock price and improvements in operational performance. Many experts have highlighted that TD has recovered well from past issues, including money laundering penalties, with solid earnings reported across various segments. However, concerns about its current high valuation multiples have been raised frequently, as the stock trades at elevated PE ratios compared to historical averages. While some experts emphasize the bank's favorable positioning within the Canadian economy and growth potential, particularly in AI and wealth management, others advocate for profit-taking and cautious investment due to perceived overvaluation. The overall sentiment suggests that while TD remains a strong contender in the Canadian banking sector, now might not be the best entry point for new investors, with several experts recommending trimming positions instead.
It has come way down with the money laundering scandal. It decided what it will pay but the stock dropped again so it has been doubly punished. Now trading below 10X - the valuation and dividend are OK. Has a new CEO and will manage the U.S. situation OK so could be fine over time. Any positive news could cause it to head back up so it is buyable.
If you're in a bull market, you want to own the strongest stocks you can find. He prefers "good, getting better", some kind of positive change that could add to the valuation, and where other people agree with him.
In penalty box. Facing painful changes. Many shareholders are underwater, so you have to fight your way through all those who just want their money back. He owns RY, CM, and NA.
Paid a huge fine recently, but remains among Canada's top two banks. The bad news is impacting the stock price, so there's lots of volatility. She sold TD 1.5 years ago and holds Royal instead. That said, it can go up from here, given the number of mortgages approaching renewal in the coming 12 months. Be cautious and wait for the share price to recover, despite its attractive dividend.
The penalty imposed by the US and the cap on growth led to these shares sliding hard. It now trades at 9.6x forward PE or 18% below its peers. So, the selling is overdone and he sees at least a partial recovery ahead. TD can still grows its Canadian market and capital securities business at 5% growth. TD ranks third in profitability on the basis of ROE .
(Analysts’ price target is $84.18)Historical, unprecedented valuation discount (high teens) to peers. Before the money laundering and failed M&A clouds appeared, used to trade at high-single or low-double digit premium. Reputation tarnished. Cap on size of US balance sheet.
Will work night and day to make itself squeaky clean again and return to growth trajectory in the US. Excess capital to be deployed in some fashion by new CEO -- buy back shares, increase dividend, M&A. Good time to own and add.
Never owned TD because it was expensive, but it could be interesting now. We know the US fine. They can't expand in the US, so what will US earnings growth be? Also, the credit cycle has another 6-18 months, so how much longer will banks have to hold reserves? He might buy in the low-70s and high-60s.
Lots of worries from money-laundering fine to cap on US growth. Dividend's not in trouble. Beautiful balance sheet. No concerns about the business, but the growth won't be there.
Are you a bargain-bin investor with the patience to wait for it to recover? If yes, could be good value down here for long-term investors. He's not, and sold. Loves the Canadian banks long term. His favourites are NA and RY right now.
Most of the bad news should be reflected in the share price. While she maintains a position, has cut back weighting a bit, since growth profile will be muted because they can't grow in the US. The US side is about 1/4 of profits, so there is growth outside of that. Last quarter, Canadian division posted pretty decent loan growth and deposit growth. Attractive income stock, with capacity to grow dividend every year though not as much as previously. Capital position still strong.
For new $$, you'd be fine to start building a position over time and within a diversified portfolio. Shouldn't be your only Canadian bank holding.
Support around $75. He prefers to see a turn in relative strength. Relative laggard for the last year+, so not being recommended to clients. If you're in TD right now, closely watch that support level. If it moves below, suggests rotating further out of TD, as there might be more downside. So many pitches coming by, just let this one go.
Thought the fine was already priced in, so he was surprised by the huge drop once announced. Big issue is that US franchise was on autopilot, without the great returns from the Canadian side. A chance to reboot. Risk management should improve, and the multiple will come back. Acquisitions are restricted. Lots of capital on hand.
Not a high multiple at 1.2x book, 10x PE. Probably can't buy it any cheaper. Yield is over 5%.
